The Gentle Shelf

The Gentle Shelf is a cozy, heart-centered virtual book club for tender hearts and curious minds. Each month, we gather around a thoughtfully chosen book to explore themes of healing, embodiment, and the return to self—one page at a time.

Next Gathering:
Tuesday, May 28th | 5:30 PM PST
Live via Zoom (link sent the day before)

This month, we’ll be reading Mother Hunger by Kelly McDaniel—a powerful, compassionate exploration of the ways unmet early needs shape our relationships, sense of self, and adult longing for safety, nurturing, and guidance.

Together, we’ll gather in conversation—not to analyze or critique—but to reflect, relate, and remember what it means to return to ourselves.

Join us!

Here’s what my clients have to say…

  • Kelly has such a gift for helping you to feel truly heard and supported.

    She has a knack for breaking things down so that change feels totally manageable and attainable. Kelly is someone who has clearly done her own work and is skilled in guiding others on their journey.

    MELODY

  • Kelly shines her inner light in an unapologetic, vibrant, and big-hearted way that is warm and approachable.

    She's the kind of person you want in your corner when you're stuck, unclear, or upset because her lived experiences both personal and professional exude her years of hard-earned insights and wisdom!

    HEIDI

  • I felt trapped by my circumstances, and felt myself yearning for more.

    Kelly became a safe space for me to be vulnerable and helped me transform my fears. She has a light that is meant to be shared, and my life is so much brighter because of it.

    KELSEY

  • “Kelly shows up with an open heart full of love and support to help guide and teach.

    There should be many more Kelly’s in this world as she has a strong ability to give and love and understand. I have found in this amazing process with her that she brings all these powerful tools and more without judgment! Kelly is my angel!”
